Hi Marc, The AKW Tuff Form pan works well as long as it's placed on a structurally solid substrate. The Tuff Form is not constructed to withstand deflection of pedestrian traffic, let alone commode chair use. I'm not impressed with the Mapei Gum waterproofing sold with the system either. However in my experience using the product, when secured on solid ground and sanded thoroughly prior to application of a high quality liquid membrane, the tuff form performs well.
